Filter by:This study protocol is mainly focus on the patients, who suffer pain, swelling, or range of motion limitation after total knee replacement (TKR) surgery procedure,would be relieved by use non-invasive laser acupuncture to stimuli on 1) the reflection areas of ear acupuncture point associated knee and pain mechanism; 2) muscle trigger points around knee joint with adequate frequency and energy power to stimuli.
the aim of this study is to compare the effects of intermittent compression decompression with glides with conventional physical therapy in patients having knee osteoarthritis. there are three groups in which patient will be allocated randomly. group A will receive treatment technique intermittent compression decompression with glides only while group B will be treated with conventional physical therapy protocol whereas group c patients will receive combination of intermittent compression decompression with glides along with conventional physical therapy protocol. Pre and post treatment data will be collected by using questionnaires WOMAC and KOOS. treatment will be given 3 times a week for 4 weeks.
This study aims to assess whether Elongation Longitudinaux Avec Decoaption Osteo Articulaire versus post assistance extending strategy have effects on knee torment. and to check its impact on actual capacity.
This study aims to determine the influence of core instability exercises in comparison to proprioceptive training in relieving pain, improving balance and physical function in general population of knee Osteoarthritis. The objective is to achieve beneficial results of interventions which can be used in betterment of treatment plan.
To assess the benefits of using semiconductor (germanium and carbon) woven knee sleeves products in patients with osteoarthritis of the knee. To compare patients in a blinded randomized trial with and without the semiconductor knee sleeves product during the first 3 months period after initial contact at the outpatient clinic. Aims: The hypothesis of the study is that the semiconductor sleeve will reduce pain and improve knee function in active group when compared to the placebo group.
The purpose of this study is to compare Sustained Acoustic Medicine treatment to topical pain relief gel for the symptomatic management of knee osteoarthritis. The study will measure pain and function scores for patients undergoing treatment.
Prosthetic joint infection (PJI) is a devastating complication following arthroplasty. An utmost effort has been done to clarify risk factors and microbiology of PJI. We now know the most frequent infecting microorganisms are members of the skin microbiome. These microorganisms are thought to get into the joint and infect the prosthesis during the peri-operative and/or post-operative period. Nevertheless, recent studies have suggested, bacteria may be present in the joint even before the first incision, suggesting the existence of a joint microbiome. Therefore, we aimed to determine the bacterial composition from different knee conditions.
Tha aim of the study is to investigate the effects of core stabilization and sensorimotor exercise program on range of motion, proprioception, balance and functional status in patients with total knee arthroplasty. The study lasts prospective randomized controlled trial. Participants were randomly divided into sensorimotor training (SM,n=17) and core stabilization training group (CS,n=19). The exercise training program was administered for home exercise as 3-5 times a week and for a 6-week duration.
Purposes: To compare knee extensor muscle strength, physical function and self-reported function before and after total knee replacement with healthy age-matched controls. To describe changes in knee extensor muscle strength up to one year after surgery. To study the relationship between changes in knee extensor muscle strength and changes in physical function, self-reported function and physical activity level and the relationship between changes in knee extensor muscle strength and satisfaction. Methods: A prospective observational study and comparison with controls. 50-55 individuals aged 65 or older, scheduled for total knee arthroplasty will be recruited to the study group. Measurement of study group 0-2 weeks before surgery and 3, 6 and 12 months following surgery. Comparison with 50-55 healthy age-matched controls.
This study aims to determine the factors affecting pain in patients with knee osteoarthritis (OA). This study will be carried out following the "Helsinki Declaration", by selecting 106 volunteers who were diagnosed with knee OA, who applied to the Department of Orthopedics between February 2022 and August 2023 and met the inclusion criteria. Before the evaluation, all the volunteers participating in the study will be informed about the purpose of the study, its duration, and the evaluations to be made. Consent will be obtained from all volunteers participating in the study with an "Informed Voluntary Consent Form". Demographic and clinical characteristics of all patients who voluntarily accepted to participate in the study will be questioned with the "Knee Osteoarthritis Evaluation Form". Quality of life, pain, range of motion (ROM), muscle strength, presence of comorbidity, and functional evaluation will be recorded on the form.
